They arrived on time and packed the furniture and some boxes for a 1 bedroom apartment in about and hour and a half. Everything arrived to the new place in the same condition as it left the old place. Total move time was about 4 hrs. Keep in mind the destination cost is for arriving at the location that you are moving from and not the transit from your old location to your new location. I was caught off guard by that. At the time of the move (August 2015) they did not accept credit cards, and the only payment options were cash or certified check/ money order. The movers did not carry any change. Double check with the driver they they are going to the correct destination. I found out that mine didn't have the correct address. All said and done, I would hire swift movers again. read more

This was my worst mover. Walter came without the supplies he needed to pack me. I had to buy my own bubble wrap and trash bags. And he had only one blanket. Couldn't move the mirror he agreed to because he couldn't wrap it. Only mover who could move a mirror. Very unprofessional. read more

Walter and his team were quick, efficient, and made moving truly stress-free. They handled my items with care and were attentive to small details. Very communicative throughout the entire process and I will surely be reaching out to them without hesitation the next time I need moving services. Would highly recommend. read more

The moving crew of 2 did a great job and were personable and cared about my things, but what was supposed to be a 3 hr job took 9 hrs and I was charged for it. My real issue is with management. -did not supply crew with enough supplies to complete two jobs -crew was not able to eat or take any breaks -limited payment options (opposite of what is described on their website) -quote was never given although I filled out a form on their website - zero customer loyalty Moving is already stressful and the lack of communication, direction, and reassurance from management did not help. I used this company before and had a great experience which is why I wanted to use them again, but not this time and so next time I will consider other options. read more

Walter helped me at the last minute with a move from Mclean to Fairfax - will definitely use him again! very reasonably priced as well! And protected all the furniture and paintings. read more

ZERO STARS. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!! Upon my first phone call to go over inventory and get our move scheduled, I was told by an employee Joe that I was locked in at my price of 4k for the service which I found reasonable. Not only was it not made clear to me that the final delivery payment had to be cash even though the first two payments were made by credit card. Our price went from 4k to 10k! Absolutely despicable! I have communicated with them several times and they will not compensate me in any way. The man who called a few days prior to pick up was extremely rude and unprofessional. He told me I could (verbatim) "tattle on me (him) to customer service". He had me in tears. His name is Jordan and he was terrible. I spoke with Olivia who I was told is the highest position and although she was kind, she did not offer any solution. Therefore, I have filed a complaint with BBB for deceptive business practices against the business and the 3 employees. I was forced to pay OVER DOUBLE what I was originally told. I view this as theft and fraud. read more

This company is a complete scam! Their website says, "the final cost we agree upon is exactly what you will pay with no hidden fees or surprises," but that is not true. They subcontracted me out to another company and I had to pay 3x the price upon pick up. They then added on an additional $1000 upon delivery because they moved my items into an 18 wheeler and the 18 wheeler could not fit into my gated community. My move ended up being $4000 more than the quoted cost. There are additional costs around every corner with this company. Their customer service is poor. I called and asked to speak with a manager for a week and never got a call back. I again called the day of delivery to try to speak with someone about the escalating cost, and Ally told me "Either you're going to pay it or you're not. If not you're items will be returned to the pick up location and you're going to pay a redelivery fee." This was a terrible experience! read more

I recently used swift movers for a move from Arlington to Fairfax. I was able to book a week or two out from my move date. It was very easy to coordinate with Walter. We had one scheduling conflict, but he quickly fixed it. The workers were very good & handled my belongings with care. The price was pretty steep for 3 workers & 1 truck, but everything is expensive now. Overall, I would recommend Walter & his movers. read more

This woman is fabricating this story because of her failure. There were no moving boxes and the movers wanted to move my clothes in a filthy cart. Luckily another very professional moving company moved me the next day with no problem at all. Don't use this company!! read more

Walter and his crew helped me out last minute when another mover failed to show up. I arranged to have some of my Mother's furniture moved from her home to her new assisted living apartment nearby. The mover I had made arrangements with two weeks prior (recommended by a friend) did not return phone calls or show up as arranged. I called Walter at 8:15 in the morning. He and two other guys showed up two hours later and moved her belongings to a nearby assisted living facility in one and a half hours start to finish. They were dependable, kind and professional. I highly recommend this company and will use them in the future for any moving needs. Thanks again Walter for helping me out last minute! read more

By far the beat moving service I've used and will be using them again. So efficient and reasonably priced. They took almost half the time with 2 guys as another company did with 3. And none of my stuff got scratched. Not to mention they were extremely friendly and accommodating so with all the stress of moving it was a relief. Would recommend to anyone! read more

Terrible moving experience with this company. Truck did not fit all of my items even though I was told at the initial consultation that it would. I had to hire a second moving company to get the remaining items out of my house. The owner/manager Walter was a problem instead of problem solver. The company is also dishonest. When I left my honest review on Google, instead of reaching out and trying to figure out how they could rectify the situation, they made up lies and said that my items were not packed when I have witnesses and photo evidence to show that the items in the house were packed and the few that were not packed were packed up while the truck was being loaded. Never again! read more

Top notch professionals! I hired Swift Movers to move several beds and dressers in my home. They were highly skilled at disassembling and reassembling the beds and expertly moved each piece up or down at least one flight of stairs. I highly recommend them and would definitely use them again for any moving needs. read more

Very nice manager and crew. Took great care of furniture. Would definitely recommend to friends and use again!

We have used Swift Movers 4 times in 7 years. I fundamentally believe that actions speak louder than words. To come back to the same company 4 times for something as personal as a move speaks volumes. Andrea is nothing short of professional and accommodative as it relates to scheduling and reserving service. She is very up front and communicative about the process and prices (which are extremely competitive). On our first move, we got Walter. We requested Walter and his crew the next 3 times. They are professional, on time, courteous and above all, hard workers. If you have an upcoming move, look no further. We will certainly use Swift Movers every time we move in rev future for as long as they'll have us. read more

I used Swift Movers LLC for the second time over the weekend , and I continue to be impressed with the quality and professionalism of the staff and crews!! In 2014, they packed me out in record time and made moving day easy. For my recent move, Andrea, the company coordinator, effortlessly accommodated my schedule and frequently communicated with me on move day details. Walter and his crew arrived on time and got to work. The crew had a great attitude and catered to my every need. I will be using Swift for another move in the coming weeks. And, they will continue to be my go-to moving company. Thank You Swift for taking the stress out of move day!! read more

Our move was very quick and Walter and Jose did a great job! I will definitely use swift movers if I have to move again!

Ive used these guys in 2010 and now again in 2015, great then and great now. They wrap large furniture, move REALLY fast, and are super nice. read more

I can't say enough good things about Swift Movers. They even arrived a bit early to get my apartment packed up. They were friendly, professional, and true to their name, extremely swift. They packed up my entire 1 bedroom apartment, moved it across the city, and unpacked everything (plus reassembling furniture) in just about two hours. They made the whole stressful process of moving a piece of cake. Everything was on time, price was just as quoted, and I couldn't be happier! I will DEFINITELY be using Swift Movers the next time I move! read more

I contacted Swift Movers for a quote. I explained to Andrea that I have a one bedroom apartment with just a bedroom set, living room set, dining set and boxes. I currently live on the ground level and will be moving in to a ground level residence - no stairways involved. And both distances are not far from each other. At first, she was very friendly and informative and knowledgeable. Even reasonable. She said based on what I told her, she will give me an hourly quote, full price $360 total: $120.00 an hour with a two hour minimum and at the end of the service, I pay the two hour minimum plus an additional $120.00. I was like, great, cool. I know my small apartment and minimum furniture would be a moving service of less than the two hours. I was fine with the estimate. She then explained that they will send out a guy, Walter, to see the items/property to be moved. When Walter arrives, he will write me up the estimate based on what I had and I can discuss it will her, Andrea, going forward. Only if I like the final estimate, I can put down the down payment of $120.00. When Walter arrived, he arrived on time. He was very professional and introduced himself. I was pretty impressed. Then, he looked around and began to tell me of services I did not need, almost argumentative to a point. He goes, I shouldn't do extra work by taking my clothes out my drawers, that I should leave the clothes in there and they will wrap the entire dresser with plastic to keep the clothes in place. I told him no, I want to take the clothes out and they can just take the empty dresser to the truck (I'm saving time taking my clothes out in advance). He stood there for about 7 - 8 minutes trying to convince me that I should keep my clothes in the dresser. He had a form in his hand to complete to show me the estimate write up but he didn't write anything like Andrea told me he would. Walter did not give me any written estimate. Why not? Instead, he told me he would talk to the company and give me a flat rate to move my stuff where I wouldn't have to worry about time. I was never worried about time because I do not have much to move: I was going to dismantle all my furniture and lay it up ready for pickup -- I told Walter this. I did it before. One bed, side table, love seat, couch, dining table, empty fish tank, small empty bookcase, two side tables, one coffee table, computer table and boxes: dishes, clothes, shoes, books. Why didn't I get a written estimate from Walter? I asked him for one and he just brushed me off. Anyone seeing the little I have to move would see this job is a slam dunk. Why would swift movers change the hourly rate I agreed to of $360.00, then turn around to give me a flat rate of $480.00? A flat rate I didn't ask for. Then Andrea emailed me saying I didn't agree to the $360.00 estimate, when I clearly did. Walter was the one saying he was going to give me a flat price when I didn't ask for one. It is my opinion, this crook Walter came to my apt, saw how easy this job would have been and he could make more money charging me a flat rate instead of the hourly rate I asked for and agreed upon KNOWING the job would be done in no more than 2 hours. I told Andrea in a response email that I would report Swift movers' thievery ways to the BBB, as I have a right to do on the bait and switch crookedness the did to me. She replied that they have a right to hike up their prices if they wanted to (pretty much) and since I didn't pay anything, I didn't lose out on anything, and that I can get my services elsewhere. Then Andrea pretty much threatened me that if I reported Swift Movers to the BBB she will sic her attorneys on me. The email thread will be available to anyone who wishes to see it. And yes, I will be reporting this unprofessional behavior by Swift Movers to the BBB. This is what you will be dealing with. Bait and switch estimates, a bully Walter who tells you what you will get whether you want that service or not, and if you complain about their shoddy treatment of you by telling them you never cancelled getting hourly services, and decline their flat rates, they will threaten to sue you in court. Good luck with these gangsters. I'm out. read more

I used Swift today and they were AMAZING!!!! They showed up early and had my 3 level townhouse loaded up in about an hour and a half. They were extremly careful not to hit the walls as they were moving items in and out. All three guys were extremly friendly and polite. The office staff I spoke with was also extremly polite. I will recommend Swift movers to anyone who needs a moving company. read more

The crew arrived early to ensure they had the reserved freight elevator access locked down, which was fortunate considering our building was letting another unscheduled crew use it! The Swift Movers worked around the trouble very professionally. We moved to a similar apartment, and while all our boxes were labeled with their destination rooms, the Swift crew was able to remember which unboxed objects went into which rooms and closets in the new place. Working with the Swift crew was a pleasure. read more

Horrible! Worst moving experience ever. the staff is rude, ill prepared and simply don't understand basic moving services. I urge anyone looking to move not to use this company. read more

We've used Swift 3 times now! They always arrive on time, move fast and are very efficient! I HIGHLY recommend Swift and will continue to use them as long as we live in the area. read more

This is the second time I've used this movers and again, they were great. They showed up on time even though there was a call for crazy rain due to hurricane Joaquin. We had 2 movers help us and they pack up our entire apartment with care within an hour. We moved into a studio condo with fresh paint and nice hardwood floors. They took extra care in placing our furniture to not scratch or damage anything. Even with all the extra care they still managed to unpack all of our belongings in just over in hour. They are fast, efficient, and will take care of your belongings. Plus, the price is right. I plan on using these guys for every single one of my moves. read more

Exceptional! Our experience with SWIFT MOVERS - Walter and Jose specifically - was tremendous! The team was prompt and displayed an energetic greeting during the initial introductions and it was clear they were ready to accomplish their mission. Walter took immediate stock of the situation and began removing larger items that did not require boxes/packaging. Throughout the 3.5 hours spent in the home, their collective deportment remained upbeat and positive. Because of this dynamic duo, we will consider using SWIFT MOVERS on our next move in 2016. Please share our sentiments with your leadership team, Walter and Jose! read more

I feel the need to remedy the lack of yelp reviews for Swift Movers because they were that good and I almost didn't book them because of the lack of reviews. Due to incompetency on the bank's part (a word to the wise, choose your mortgage lender carefully) the closing on our house was delayed repeatedly. When we got approval to close from the bank, we were less than a week out from closing and just over a week away from when we wanted to move. Not surprisingly, a week out, most moving companies were booked and didn't have any availabilities until after our lease for our apartment expired. I contacted swift as a last resort (I went to the companies with more reviews first) and was pleasantly surprised that they were able to squeeze us in at the last minute and at a reasonable price (The only other company that was available was charging over double the price swift charged even after coming down a few times). They were able to get us in at noon but the freight elevator in our building was only available from 11-1, which we mentioned. Come moving day, swift got to our building just before 11, which we were hoping for, and started wrapping our furniture while we waited for the elevator to be ours. 3.5 hours later, all of our stuff was in our new house, including a double wide dresser and an awkwardly shaped corner desk on the 2nd floor up a narrow staircase with multiple turns, something I considered miraculous. Nothing was slightest bit damaged and it probably would have taken us at least 2 days to move what they moved in 3 hours. I would hands down recommend swift movers to a friend , they're worth every penny! read more

This is the most unprofessional business I have EVER worked with. My small, local, nonprofit organization was moving to a new office. We had originally planned to save money and move ourselves but decided to hire a company a week before the move. When I spoke with the office manager, I informed her of the pieces of furniture and boxes and was told that they charge by the hour so there was no need to for a site visit and estimate. When I asked about payment, she informed me that they do not accept credit cards but agreed to a check upon completion of move. The 2 movers arrived late and complained that they had trouble finding the office then proceeded to complain profusely about the size of the move. I offered our help and he accepted which I knew should have raised red flags as that would have been against his insurance. When I went to the truck to help, I learned that one of his movers had ran off so he only had one helper. My staff and I spent the next hours moving alongside them during which, he had threaten to quit twice. An hour in to moving out of our old office, he announced that was all he was moving even though it wasn't everything. We had to finish moving the remainder ourselves the next day. After moving into our new office, he informs me that he only accepts cash and this is written in the email confirmation. I showed him the email confirmation which did NOT have any wording about cash only. This is when he informed me that he was the owner and that it was his policy. So, I ran out to get cash for him while he yelled at me about not having time to wait for me to go to a bank. After paying him the cash, he gave me his work order as the receipt so I asked him to write "paid in full" or "0 balance" to make it a receipt but he refused and became belligerent. He shoved me out of the way and ran. He only stopped when our director ran after him and threatened to call the police if he didn't give us a proper receipt. Finally, he reluctantly wrote his first name (only) on the work order and left. It was a nightmare experience. Yes, their prices are affordable, but not worth the nightmare. read more
